| Abstract | In an effort to evaluate the occupational success of graduates and to determine how well academic programs prepare students for work, Piedmont Virginia Community College (PVCC) regularly conducts surveys of employers of PVCC graduates. In 1993, surveys were sent to the employers of 47 graduates from the class of 1990-91 who had previously given permission for their employers to be contacted. Usable responses were received from 32 employers, for a response rate of 68.1%. Survey findings included the following: (1) approximately 80% of the respondents rated PVCC graduates as "excellent" or "good" with respect to technical job skills, quality and quantity of work, attitude, and cooperation with fellow workers and supervisors; (2) of the 32 graduates whose employers returned responses, 45.2% had previously indicated that they intended to pursue their current jobs as long-range careers; (3) 33% of these graduates had previously indicated that they were very satisfied with their jobs, 60% were satisfied, and 6.7% were not very satisfied; (4) approximately 70% of the responding employers rated the graduates' math, writing, speaking, research, and logic skills as "excellent" or "good"; and (5) occupational education and training at PVCC was rated as "excellent" or "good" by 82.6% of the employers, while general education received similar ratings by 69.6%. Detailed appendixes include employer evaluations by program and degree, employer comments, job categories of participating graduates, a list of participating employers, and the survey instrument.
